Specifies the amount of time VTAM® delays deactivation of an SSCP-PU session when there are no LU-LU session requests.
For Subarea and Non-HPR APPN Sessions: DISCNTIM is valid only for PU types 2 and 2.1 that have
DISCNT=DELAY specified on the PU definition statement.
time_period1 specifies the amount of time VTAM delays deactivation of an SSCP-PU session after all LU-LU sessions terminate. IMMED specifies the SSCP-PU session will be terminated immediately when the last LU-LU session terminates.
time_period2 specifies the amount of time after establishment of an SSCP-PU session, VTAM delays deactivation of the session if no LU-LU sessions have been established. When 0 is specified, VTAM will not deactivate the line if no LU-LU session is established after the line is connected.
You can change the value of DISCNTIM with the MODIFY VTAMOPTS command while VTAM is running.
